	The most important element of ''Missive for Sadogua'' is the parchment on which the message is written. It must be square, and divided into a five by five grid. If it is not it will still disappear, but it will not reach Sadogua. Ritualists include other elements appropriate both to the ~~Eternal~~ and the ~~Realm~~ of Night. Masks, veils and cowls are often used, especially if the ritualist wishes to obscure or conceal their identity from the ~~Eternal~~. The ritual is often performed in darkness, as close to absolute as the ritualist can get and still see to write. In some cases, ritualists use a mirror and a candle, and write their message while looking only in the mirror - the mental agility this takes is said to make the ritual more effective, and Sadogua is believed by some to receive messages composed in this fashion more quickly.
